you might like it but would you say its worth the world record, there are millions of better photos out there. if that photos worth £3m then trey ratcliffe should be a billionaire
i could take a picture of a river, print it 3m long and most people wouldn't know the difference

I like the photo, but it's not worth that much in my eyes.
But neither is the photo made by Henri Cartier-Bresson that Bjorn posted.
If both of these pictures where thaken by you next door neighbour they would not sell for these amaounts.

Could not agree more, even though I find the one done by Henri Cartier-Bresson to be very interesting!

When talking "art" and "price" in the same context, all normal frames of reference goes right out the window. None of the same guidelines we would otherwise use to estimate value of an item, apply here - it's more of a group psychology exercise among a small group of investors who would even consider playing 7 figures for any photo.

In and of itself, it's a fairly drab image with no real outstanding features: composition, color, DOF, elements, angle of view, lighting...very few people on this planet would even know that this is The Rhine by looking at it.

I think it takes a particular psychology to even consider forking over that kind of money for a decorative item - no matter what it is.
